How you guy's 6th gens holding up these days I don't drive mine much anymore maybe once a week now and it seems to be running better than it used too overall.

 

Mine was running just as good as when I bought it before I shut it down.

 

po8pimp How many miles you got i'm at 92000.

 

Mine is running good, pretty much the same as when I bought it new with 7 miles, currently has 161,360

 

Around 99,800 miles or so. Can't wait to hit that 100k.

 

Mine currently has 153,500km or 92,100mi

Still running great except for Heater Auto mode that keeps reverting to A/C Mode..... have to change fan speed to get it into Heat Mode.

 

That's cool it seems like yall boys keeping your rides up in good shape. Mine has a power steering leak its not that bad though just a couple of drops a week. When I drive it all day it wont leak just only when it sits over night.

 

Mine has 68k on it now, runs great. Of course we just got a layer of snow today, and the heated steering wheel stopped heating. No blown fuse, switch light goes on, but wheel does not heat. Ideas?

 

BRUISER Your steering wheel wont heat up? try this let the car run for about 10 minutes then drive off and turn it on! that sounds like an 04 post a picture of your ride so we can see it. Is your Transmission original as well?

 

You leak of power steering happened to mine as well. Gets worse over time even using stop leak. Bought a new one at AutoZone for under $200. Had Nissan install it pretty cheap.

 

po8pimp it's leaking on to the manifold its definetly gotta be the high pressure hose. I filled the power steering reservoir up in December and its still up there at the max even though its been leaking little drops.

 

@OP - what kind of rims are those?

 

george__ That's a Mandretti 22 dude

the upside is the ride quality feels very expensive it glides when you drive thru the city Lexus GS/Mercedes E class like!
The stock wheels didn't offer that same ride quality

the downside is rough roads/potholes


I need yalls help I wanna get some better shocks and stuff for a more straighline feel in the ride quality to take the softness out of it.

 

Chris, I have tried that, but have to suffer with a cold wheel (sob). Mine is an '04 I found 3 yrs ago with 35k on it, with the 5sp auto. I changed all fluids incl tranny to Amsoil within 2 days of purchase and have had no problems. I now have 66k on it, and have embarassed a couple folks in Z's and G35's. What a fun car...kind of has a "sleeper" attitude.

 

+1

Replacing fluids helps more than most folks really understand..good job. Really is a sleeper lol. To date i've embarassed 7th gen max, 6.5 gen max, G35, 37(tied),camaro, IS250, STI, E class blah blah lol. I've come to realize that anything under 300hp cant hang and i'm completely stock...maybe its the 6spd



I do notice both lines leading into my power steering reservoir have fluid on them now for the past few months...though i dont see the fluid going down. What does that mean?? Just replace hoses or reservoir?

 

^
what do you think will happen against a Cobalt SS & Pontiac G8?

 

I'm thinking of going Cold Air Intake on this beast too.

My only concern is noise look at this 6.5 gen with one that thing sound like Roseanne from 1:00 to 1:03


Roseanne.

 

Lmao great clip

 

watch the 8th gen suprise us, probably come with a bisquit maker.

 

V6 Camaro I came from a 6th gen and there is no comparison to an SS
